Hi,

Great news, just dont be a "stupid man", again.

Paul

Nice to hear some good news

I'm still in shock!! I wasn't expecting anything apart from maybe applying to court with my stamped C100 forms,..

Im so happy x

Happy to read this, keep us posted, fingers crossed for you.

I need to change my name to yours,

Im absolutely buzzing. Could not of been better, when I drove home the tears of joy just wouldn't stop, I've not felt this good in over a year!!!

Im going to be watching my letter box like a hawk!!

Just need to concentrate on my fight for my daughter now.

Cheers super proud dad

That's great news! You prepared well and kept your expectations in check. I'm so glad that you can develop your relationship with your son, without the strain of court hanging over you all....it's so much better to find a way forward between yourselves and statistics show that parents that can work out a plan, without outside interference, are more likely to stick to it.

She sounds like a reasonable woman, who is able to put her sonsbest interests first. Well done!

Cheers mojo, very inspiring words as always, I was armed up to the teeth and very well prepared

But as you know mediation is totally voluntary with absolutely no input from the mediator ( off record he was really impressed with the way I handled this process, and was saying that he really appreciate my COMMITMENT)

I was very humble and was pretty much prepared for any advance in this case. I've been talking to a great chap from another site (don't know if I can mention it or not for your rules etc) so basically he has took the time to prepare for me a discussion document of which I printed out and had three copies of, stating from start to finish everything I would like to happen over x amount of time with the most gentle approach.

Well it was just wizardry, I really can't thank him enough. Also mum for seeing the change in me and my COMMITMENT to striving towards being a [censored] good daddy to our son.

Im so proud of myself and the help I've received from a really strong team who believe in me and my goles!!

And this site has so much information on it and I've learnt so much, I can't thank you lot enough for all your input and advice, it's priceless!!

Now my fight is just for my daughter now, onwards and upwards.

Remember daddy's, fathers, dads, bloke's and chaps. There is light at the end of the tunnel and if you want it enough and never give in you will grab it,

Fantastic news, and great that it was done at mediation, without having to take it further 🙂

... I like the sound of a discussion document, perhaps you could expand on that a bit? It does sound like it was a great help during mediation, I think, more broadly, a Parenting Plan can be helpful within the process too.

I'm really pleased that we have been able to help you and that you find the forum so informative. It's so important to new members that they can find the information and friendly support that they need at the right time.

You should rightly be proud of yourself... it is you that have been the driving force, you have researched and reached out to others for their help, and most of all you have taken others experiences and advice on board. Keep it up and I'm sure you will be successful in finding you way back to your daughter too.

Best of luck

Hi mojo, if you inbox me your email address I can send you the discussion document, cheers
